Second child syndrome

Poor Ella, I haven't taken a picture of her for weeks! Guess that's what happens when you have a 3 yr old too. Ella doesn't even have a baby book, I better get one or I can see the scene 10 years from now...

Blue Eyes

Who would've thought we'd have a baby with blue eyes! I've been trying to get a picture of Ella smiling, but instead I just got this one, but at least you can see her eyes now ;)
P.S. You've got to click on the pic so you can see them close up.

Thanks Erin!

I just wanted to post some pictures from Erin's wedding that the photographer took. Now if I can just get 10 minutes to myself to put them in a frame and hang it up!

Christmas morning

Ella w/ her new doll and bow

Riley w/ her chef outfit

Riley's new hat and doll

This morning brought lots of presents for Riley & even Ella. The morning started out good until Ella decided to stay up for more than 5 hours before completely exhausting her parents and herself. Oh well, just a couple more months and hopefully she'll be a better sleeper. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

Snow in Gig Harbor

Technically this is the most snow Seattle has seen in a decade and let's just say this area is definitely not equipped to handle any of it. Everything is shut down around here, I went to the grocery store yesterday and you would've thought it was the end of the world. The lines were insane and the traffic around the harbor was crazy. Anyway, here's some pics of Riley and Ella (who is now 4 weeks already).

Ella...oh Ella, please sleep

Well, Ella is now a little over three weeks old and I can't remember the last time I slept more than 4 hours at a time. Everyday is completely different, which drives me crazy since I like schedules. I can't wait for the day when she can sleep at night and not decide to be wide eyed and crazy from 1-3am!! It's like another little Riley all wrapped up just in time for Christmas ;)

It's Christmas time

Here is Riley and Ella with Santa, Riley is finally phobia free from Santa and gladly went to sit on his lap (of course, he also had a huge candy cane to give her).
